Yao Sisi saw that they had done well and decided not to put on airs. She warmly cupped her hands and said, "It's fine, it's a simple task. As the saying goes, if the road is uneven, I'm just shouting a few words. I really have something to do, so I won't stay here any longer."
In his heart, he was thinking, "Stop me, stop me!"
At first, Young Master Li had looked down on Yao Sisi, but now he was actually expressing his gratitude from the bottom of his heart. Of course, he wouldn't just let Yao Sisi leave like this.
Yao Sisi rejoiced inwardly, but she put on a troubled expression and said, "No, it's just a small matter. If fate wills it in the future, it's not too late for me to thank you."
With that, Yao Sisi turned to the magistrate and clasped her hands, "See you later!"
After which, he walked out of the door in a carefree manner. The Li family couple looked gratefully at Yao Sisi. Young Master Li sincerely said, "Consider that my Li family owes Young Hero a favor."
In front of a face-to-face situation that no one could see, Yao Sisi was laughing so hard that she was on the verge of tears.
Right now, the green Ru that was rushing towards Qingyang City was like a beggar worthy of his reputation. His body was filthy with stolen goods, and if it wasn't for his graceful figure, even a man or woman wouldn't be able to see through him.
She had just arrived at Qingyang City and was unaccompanied by money. It took her a few days to find out that there were countless wealthy families in Qingyang City, and based on her appearance, not to mention finding her father, it would be difficult for her to live on. The jade pendant she only had on her body had to be eaten, and now she had to find a job so that she could redeem it when she had money.
Walking along the road, Lu Lu saw a recruitment notice written on the door of a large household. She lowered her head to look at her clothes, steeled her heart, took her last bit of money to buy a set of ordinary clothes, changed her clothes, borrowed a bucket of water from the farmhouse, and poured some water to wash herself. Although it didn't change into the world, it was because the sparrows had changed into phoenixes.
"Line up, line up!"
Slowly, she stood at the back of the line. There were at least fifty candidates, and there were also people who were better looking than her, and there were also people who would give money to the manager. However, she did not have a single cent now. At this time, a butler came out from the back door. He looked around and said: "You can leave if you are over 30."
The team immediately broke out into a flurry of discussion, but no matter what they said, it was still a ruckus. The women who didn't meet the requirements all scolded and left. Suddenly, there were only 20 or so people left. The steward had looked through all of them, kicking those that were either ugly or extremely ordinary, leaving only ten behind.
However, there were only five spots selected this time, so the remaining ten people didn't even have time to be happy and were about to face an intense elimination.
The butler looked at the girl in front of him and asked, "What do you know?"
The girl's face lit up, and she said with a smile, "Laundry, cook, clean, and wipe the floor."
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do everything. Then the butler shook his head and said, "Eliminate!"
He walked up to the second girl and asked, "What do you know?"
With the first example, the lady was a little nervous. She whined for a long time but did not say anything. The butler frowned, "No, you can leave now!"
When it was Lu Ru's turn, she felt as if her heart was like a little deer running around, which made her a bit uneasy. But she knew that if she did not succeed this time, then she would really have nothing left, and would she really end up as a beggar for the rest of her life? Of course not, so she raised her head to look at the steward's gaze, "Greetings, steward!"
"Hmm, neither arrogant nor impetuous. Tell me, what do you know?"
"Little girl, I've been poor since I was young. My mother spoils me for getting these words. Embroidery is not bad, and I can clean things a little bit more easily."
"Yes." "You can stay, from now on you'll have to serve Second Young Master's food."
"I thank the steward for his approval and for the job."
The butler looked at Lu Ru thoughtfully. "Don't thank him too early. Second Young Master is not that easy to serve. Just remember not to speak carelessly."
She was good in everything, just that she did not like to talk to people. To her, as long as it was not necessary, she would be lazy to say more, to arouse the enmity of others. She nodded seriously. With this job, she could save two taels of silver a month. After a year, she could ask around for that necklace and find that person to fulfill her mother's last wish.
Lu Ru had been assigned to live in a servant's room in the western courtyard. The day had just arrived, and she was fast asleep, when she heard someone calling her from the outside. She was still rather sleepy, so she quickly tidied up and opened the door to see the butler from yesterday.
"Second Young Master's personal maid is sick. I will take you to the Second Young Master's residence now. You have to help the Second Young Master get out of bed." From now on, you are Second Young Master's personal maid. You have to do everything Second Young Master tells you to do. Second Young Master doesn't like people disobeying him. Do you know? "
Lu Ru nodded and followed the butler. With her sharp mind, she naturally realized that the Second Young Master was a hot-tempered person. She wasn't willing, but why would she not have a choice? She had already made up her mind that as long as she did as much as she could, it wouldn't be that easy to make mistakes.
The housekeeper stopped and the house in front of him had three big words written on it: Light Dusty Residence. So this wasn't the name of the place. The name of the Drifting Dust house was chosen by the Second Young Master the next morning.
When the steward saw that the room was still dark, he calmed down. The Second Young Master had not woken up yet. Luckily, if he woke up, no one would serve him. The second young master only changed his maidservants once a month on average. He hoped that the girl he picked this time would last longer. She came back to her senses and said in a low voice, "You just wait here. When you see the lights on, you can go in."
"Yes, I know."
"En, that's good. Let's go!"
Lu Lu looked at the steward and slightly leaned back. "Please send the steward off."
The butler did not turn his head back. Lu Lu watched as the butler walked away with steady steps. Only then did he start to size up Xiao Chen. The left side of the bamboo forest was about the size of a room, with bluestone paved the way. In an octagonal pavilion, there was a stone table and a stone stool, which seemed simple and crude, but it was rather artistic and very peaceful. It could be seen that the owner of this place had used a lot of effort.
After sitting for a while, the lights in the room lit up.
Lu Lu perked up and walked over to knock on the door. "Second Young Master, are you up now?"
"Come in!"
Her voice was cold and proud.
Lu Lu pushed the door open and walked in. Her gaze shifted around, trying to find the Second Young Master. The man's voice sounded again, but this time it was a little impatient. "Why aren't you coming?"
Only then did she clearly see the man in the inner clothes, leaning against the bedpost, lying on the bed on the right side of the curtain. His head was slightly lowered, and she could vaguely see that he was tall and thin.
